Land ownership must be enforced by court of law, and that's true of all property. Yet land ownership is the easiest to maintain. While my neighbor might take my lawnmower and claim it as his own and the courts would have difficulty proving otherwise. Land is difficult to walk off with. Maintaining ownership is simply a matter of maintaining accurate and secure records.

The record means nothing if it is not practically enforceable, and being able to enforce them comes with an ongoing cost, which the beneficiary, the land owner, has to pay for one way or another.
